What reading level is Scouting for Stanley in East Africa book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They were of the perch family, with greenish back and silvery belly, and the largest of them weighed as high as eight pounds. We distributed fish-hooks to the men, as far as we had them. The others made rude hooks of bent wire. They tied these to pieces of string, baited them with meat, and scatter- ing themselves along the shore, with this rude tackle, woo'd the finny strangers with such surprising success that, half an hour after getting into camp, our hundred Isaac Waltons must have caught n...ot less than a ton of fish, or an average of twenty pounds to the man! In a little while our camp was like a fish market — an African Billingsgate. It was the greatest bonanza the fish-lov- ing porters had struck for many a day. How they reveled in their abundance !
It was as evident as anything of a circumstantial nature could prove, that we had scrambled over the waves and breakers of a volcanic upheaval into an inter- esting little bit of solitude, which had never before been desecrated by human foot-prints.
